Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh refuses to say he lied to NCAA investigators regarding an infractions case filed against the school, leading to a breakdown of negotiations between the two entities, according to Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports.
Harbaugh has admitted that his program committed four Level II violations, as the NCAA initially alleged, and has apologized to the university for allowing them to occur, per the report. However, he has refused to sign any document or publicly state that he was ever untruthful with the enforcement staff.
The four Level II violations in question reportedly include meeting with two recruits during a COVID-19 dead period, texting a recruit outside of a permissible time period, having analysts perform on-field coaching duties during practice and having coaches watch players work out via Zoom.
